I am getting both at the same price at $23 after a NewEgg discount! I use the Corsair Vengeance Low Profile, so spacing is not an issue. http://www.corsair.com/memory-by-product-family/vengeance/vengeance-low-profile-8gb-dual-channel-ddr3-memory-kit-cml8gx3m2a1600c9.html However, is there a...

Right now, I have both that I got at $23 with tax and shipping: Cooler Master Hyper 212 plus Cooler CORSAIR CAFA70 120mm Dual-Fan CPU Cooler ($15 MIR) However much I would like to keep both, perhaps I would be returning the 212+. Before I do that, some questions: 0. In most...

Sorry for going at a tangent, but how does this $230 before taxes and fees monitor "look" like: http://www.frys.com/product/6693564?site=sa:adpages%20page:3 I would indeed be watching movies and playing games, but wavering on that sub-$200 budget and 6 feet requirement :-D

How long have you had this? Did you buy it from newegg?

My system bits are: CPU: i5-2500k RAM: Vengeance™ Low Profile — 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 Memory Kit (CML8GX3M2A1600C9) PSU: OCZ Z Series 1000 W Power Supply GPU: IGP on the i5-2500k for now, SLI 560TI 2GB later HSF: cooler master Hyper 212+ MB: ASUS P8Z68-V PRO CASE: COOLER MASTER...

I agree, but because of my credit card warranty, it becomes a non-issue. I am sure glad when I noticed this one :D One question: is a "bare drive" aka for OEM? I am afraid to order MB and HDD from online sites as the vibration during transit can reduce the reliability a lot! You...

I am stuck on deciding between ASUS P8Z68-V PRO vs ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3. Fry's does not stock ASRock and Microcenter is OOS on the ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3. I would prefer buying the CPU and MB from them rather than NewEgg(ease of replacement). Four questions: 1. As I will not be...

My system bit are going to be: CPU: i5-2500k RAM: Vengeance™ Low Profile — 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 Memory Kit (CML8GX3M2A1600C9) PSU: OCZ Z Series 1000 W Power Supply Review GPU: IGP on the i5-2500k for now, SLI 560TI 2GB later HSF: cooler master Hyper 212+ MB: ? CASE: ? LCD: ? Want...

Price aside, how does the Vengance compare with the Kingston HyperX? Hmm.. is the issue as easy as cutting bits off the HSF?:confused:

Thanks so much for doing my homework for me. Hmm, no Asrock then, but if you don't mind, what do you think this is like: 1. i5-2500K + P8Z68-V PRO bundle at MC for $350 2. 8GB 1600MHz DUAL CORSAIR VENGEANCE #CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9, UPC:843591010801 for $40 AR A bit more pricier, but "higher...

Appreciate your indepth reply! You don't see prices falling anymore? Gigabyte has not moved to uefi bios yet - future upgrade at risk. AsRock boards have tremendous value for money and the ones I have list 2 yrs ltd. warranty and my credit card will increase it by a year more. Which...

Would it be worth waiting for a few more months to buy a SandyBridge build? DDR3 prices seem to have hit rock bottom (2x4GB sometimes for $20 AR!) and the i5-2500k can often be had for $150 at MicroCenter I am thinking of buying: 1. i5-2500k I wanted to ask if the IGP inside this is enough...
